Wow! So many good songs planned.

A vast majority of people here have RS for pc. I don't know anything about ps3. It does sound though like the ps3 has to be modded (jailbreak) before you can play cdlc's on them. You can google modding a ps3 and also look on youtube. Cdlc's here that are not available for a ps3 can be converted from pc to ps3 by using the toolkit located here: http://customsforge.com/topic/989-custom-song-toolkit-v2500-was-released/

Here are a few topic threads from the old SA site that might help.

Have you made sure your cdlc's have the right AppID? If not change them by using the RCSToolkit. If the AppID is not correct the cdlc's will not show up. 

There is a good tutorial on getting cdlc's working on a Mac, on SA written by mikewiehle you might check out.

Thanks for all the good advice. I really started this post as more of a humorous topic than a serious gripe. Still after three months of RS I was hoping to be further along than I am.

I know one of my problems is I spend to much time on the forums. Seems like by the time I search all of the topics, download songs, then place each song in a new folder and add each song to my database list, it takes away from my practice time.

I do know that I am learning things faster now thanks to RS and online instructions, than any other earlier attempts at learning guitar.

I know one of my bad habits is I mostly just play around a little with each song (I have hundreds) until it gets to tough, then I move on to the next song, instead of really trying to learn a few songs really well.

I need to start using riff repeater more and actually learn the whole song.

I started watching a few of the beginners videos on Justinguitar.com a couple months ago and need to revisit that site and continue.

I was going to suggest you ask in the toolkit developer's sub-forum but looks like you already have.  http://customsforge.com/topic/1721-mac-toolkit-doesnt-start/

I don't think the old way (Rocksmith 1 PC to Xbox360) conversion no longer works

I'm guessing your talking about converting with the Rocksmith Custom Song Toolkit. (Get the newest version here: http://www.rscustom.net/ )

Using the toolkit is about the only way I know to convert between formats. Just open the toolkit and click on the converter tab.

If your still having problems you might want to start a new topic thread about the issues your having in the developer's sub-forum here: http://customsforge.com/forum/56-rocksmith-custom-tool-kit/

I'll be following this thread, hoping that someone that is really knowledgeable on converting a dat to psarc will write an easy to follow tutorial.

I like what I was listening to way back in high school, so that make me a classic rock fan.

They also talk about this somewhat in the 'RocksmithConfiguration.pdf' file located in your Rocksmith2014 directory.

I had a great time trying out as many German beers as I could when I was there for a couple of weeks during Oktoberfest in 1993.

My younger brother who was living close to Freising introduced me to Hofbrauhaus Freising Huber Weisses.

To this day I still think that it is the best beer that I have ever tasted.

If it wasn't for Ubisoft/Rocksmith and the highly skilled contributors that make custom dlc's I don't know if I would have ever attempted again to learn guitar.

Starting practicing again after putting my guitar away 25 years ago.

Sad news indeed. I have a few of his concert videos on DVD, and quite a few DVD's of the Guitar Trio.

I would suggest that anyone not familiar with Paco Youtube him. He was a great Spanish flamenco guitar player.

I agree with @@Mac66 commits. I have donated once and would be willing to donate again in the future. It sounds like you are not wanting to have a huge amount of funds in your Paypal account. If you ever need extra funds for major upgrades don't feel bashful putting the word out to the members for help. I know there are a lot of people on this site that would be willing to help to have this site be as trouble free as possible.

Thanks MartyV. I'll look into that.

I know this has nothing to do with the problem your having with the Enter Shikari song, but this has bugged me ever since I started playing RS2014.

Most times when I play a note on my low E string RS shows arrows pointing down that I have to play a lower note. If I do play a lower note it's definitely a miss.

I always have to de-tune that string lower and it sounds out of tune but at least it doesn't show up as a miss. Doesn't matter if I tune using the game or my standalone tuner.

It might be my guitar or pickups as I have never heard anyone else complain about this problem.

I'm no expert on this. I think the profile files are kept in the Steam directory in the userdata folder. (Numbered folders)

I don't think you will lose your scores and just to verify it, I tried it out.

I have Steam, RS & RS2014 on both my laptop and desktop.

I only play the RS games on the laptop. I have never played my guitar through the games on the desktop.

I took some dlc's & cdlc's from both games off my laptop and installed them on my desktop.

All of my scores on both games from dlc's & cdlc's showed up on the desktop.

And lately a lot of the Leinenkugel beers.

Like trying out new beers, and going to the Great American Beer Festival.

@@dscottintexas It sounds like you are doing everything correct. Strange that only 1 custom is showing up at a time. I have over 100 showing up in my learn a song menu.

All I can suggest is just double checking everything. Make sure you have the correct D3DX9_42.dll file and that it is located in the Rocksmith2014 directory.

I have seen two versions of this file. One has a size of about 129kb and the other is about 1.80mb. You want the smaller one.

Have you tried the rocksmith 2014 patcher.exe file that is listed as PC alternative 2 at the top of this thread?

Make sure your cdlc's are placed in the Rocksmith2014/dlc folder.

Sounds like you are following the correct steps using the toolkit. Unless the song already has the AppID of a song you own, I don't think the song will show up in the learn a song menu if you haven't changed the AppID. 

If you have not watched this video you might watch it just to see if you are missing something.
